Phoenix, forget your mac friends, I wanna play this patch NOW

the more dlc
the better, 2k wants nothing but money?

2k wants nothing but money? ... Agree! You should see the prices for 2K games in Australia .. almost double that of the US .. no reason for it.

@ dumbasses complaining about compatibility issues instead of being happy we got a massive new patch: TURN OFF AUTOMATIC UPDATING. It isn't hard!

Australia probably has different rates for most things

Great patch, cheers!!

Aussiedroid, prices are set to reflect local retail expectations. It sucks (I never buy games retail any more anyway, so WTF) but it's about 'protecting the local economy' or some such. My understanding is that it's an international legal requirement for online purchasing of any type to encourage people to buy local. Even if you can't get whatever it is you want locally. In that case, some online retailers simply won't sell it to you at all. Get some friends in the US and work out a deal.

[BDA]Kiwi, I wrote a reply but it didn't fit (something about "max 1000 characters" ) so it's readable here now; http://steamcommunity.com/groups/EuroPricesPlease/discussions/1/810938082745703712/

The AI is way smarter now. Tho there is still slight issue with them not keeping their promises about spying and not sending prophets and missionaries
Also when going AI attacks me and loses they no longer offer half of their cities in return. And they also understand when they have basically lost the war.

Trading is much more interesting now. AI isn't as greedy as it used to be. Sometimes their demands were just insane. And now they also offer world congress resolutions as trade offers and even ask for them.

The AI no longer expands in a stupid fashion to areas and spaces that are worthless and bankrupting their civilization in the progress.

The game is much more interesting now even at lower difficulties. I no longer need to allow AI to blatantly cheat and get massive handicaps for them to offer any kind of challenge.

This patch basically made this a whole new game. Almost like it would be a Brave new Game...

@Apheriox My friends turned of automatic updates like a week ago when I discovered that I was also running 1.0.3.18. The patch got released, and the patch was released and installed on their computers (Windows). Now they're running 1.0.3.142 (or something) and we can NOT play with each other because I have a Mac (and I haven't got the patch).

Totally agree with Sinister Minister, AI is way smarter and more fun to play against now.

@Sinister Minister exactly. I especially find the AI to be so much better in trading. They now ask for your luxury resource in case they need it, and offer a reasonable price. Unlike before where you have to go to them yourself.

How do I download this.

All my mods say they're not compatible with the game version? this happened right after I updated my game. Any ideas?

I deleted the Mod Cache in my documents and now seem to be able to enable them.

nice fix & update. very interesting, thx stuff ;)
